Eternal Life: From Refining Puppets to Cultivate for Me

Su Qing's heart sank after hearing Ge Changyuan's words. Lingtian District is vast and sparsely populated, and most of it is outside the city. It is not uncommon for monsters to harm people.

For someone like Ge Ling to be able to escape from the monster's mouth is already a great blessing among misfortunes.

And being mutilated is not a big deal in the world of immortality.

The superior method is to use the regeneration technique of severed limbs to restore them to their original state, but these methods are only available to major repairers in the later stages of foundation building. Ge Changyuan and Su Qing obviously do not have the qualifications to allow such beings to come forward, and they have to pay Can't afford the corresponding price.

According to the method of the middle vehicle, if the severed limb remains intact, you can seek help from a spiritual doctor to sew the severed limb together. After several months of recuperation, it should be fine. However, according to Ge Dayuan's description, the monster tore off its leg and scared away. Now the broken leg , I am afraid it has been digested into dregs.

The inferior method is to modify prosthetic limbs, replacing part of the functions of the missing limbs with foreign objects. This method can be done by some puppet master apprentices and weapon refiner apprentices.

However, due to different techniques, the effectiveness of prosthetics is also very different.

The weapon refiner treats the prosthetic limb as an independent individual and refines the prosthetic limb in the same way as a magic weapon. The prosthetic limb itself may not have many shortcomings, but the sluggish feeling when used always reminds the patient that what he is wearing is a fake. A prosthesis.

In contrast, the puppeteer treats the patient as a whole, and the prosthetic limb is just a part of the whole. After being installed, it not only seamlessly connects with the patient's physical body, but also has a certain degree of intelligence. If the prosthetic limb is not installed, it will no longer be possible to practice. , the prosthetic limbs refined by the Puppet Master can really compete with the regeneration of severed limbs by Foundation Establishment Overhaul.

In the past, Su Qing's main means of making a living in Lingtian District were repairing farm tools for Lingzhifus and occasionally making prosthetic limbs for Lingzhufus who had lost limbs.

At that time, he was just an apprentice puppet master, but because of his carefulness and ability to meet customers' imaginable or unexpected needs, coupled with his unique attainments in bionic runes, the prosthetic limbs he made were praised by customers who used them. .

No, Ge Changyuan came over overnight and asked him to refine Ge Ling's prosthetic limbs, which was proof of his good reputation in the past.

Of course, part of the reason is that he is now a first-level mid-level puppet master, and he is the only first-level puppet master that Ge Changyuan can possibly recruit.

"Ling'er has loved beauty since she was a child. The old man was reluctant to let her use those crudely made prosthetic limbs. He also asked fellow Taoists to come over. The reward has been prepared for the old man. Fellow Taoist, see if these are enough. If they are not enough, the old man can still get them. The old man's The spiritual field is worth more than a thousand spiritual crystals."

Although Zeng Rong kept Su Qing at home for several years, there was a certain friendship between the two parties.

However, the friendship between cultivators is weak. After Su Qing was promoted to the first-level puppet master, the two sides rarely interacted with each other. Whether Su Qing still missed the old relationship or not, Ge Changyuan was worried in his heart.

Concerned and confused, he was afraid that Su Qing would not like this small order, so before Su Qing agreed, he thrust the money bag into Su Qing's hand.

Su Qing did not refuse. He reached out to take the purse and weighed it. There must be more than four hundred spiritual crystals in it.

This is not too little.

For a spiritual cultivator like Ge Changyuan, after working for a year and eliminating various expenses, he will only have two to three hundred spiritual crystals left. If he adds some farm tools and family expenses, there will be very little left for the year. This bag The spiritual crystals inside have been accumulated by him for many years.

But for Su Qing, going back and forth from the living area to Lingtian District, not to mention the risks involved, is just a waste of time. With his current efficiency in refining puppets, he will only lose money.

What's more, now is the critical stage for him to achieve the perfection of the Burning Secret Puppet. If others come to ask for help, he will definitely refuse.

But the status of Ge Yuanyuan's family in his heart was naturally different from that of ordinary people.

"Fellow Taoist, please go out and wait while I prepare."

Seeing Su Qing take the money bag, Ge Changyuan felt at ease, secretly thinking that the Taoist mother-in-law was right, this fellow Taoist Su was a man of friendship.

Within a moment, with the help of the wood spirit servants, Su Qing tied all the puppet-making tools to the iron-legged horse and walked out of the yard.

The living area was quiet late at night, and few monks went out to avoid encountering evil spirits.

As soon as Su Qing walked out of the yard, she frowned slightly.

This life is no better than the previous one, and the theory of evil spirits is not a false fantasy of ignorant people, but a reality.

As far as Su Qing knows, evil spirits belong to Yin. Wherever evil obstacles and unjust accusations occur, the probability of evil spirits being born is greater. They follow certain rules. If they encounter one, they will get seriously ill or die.

Around Baiyunfang City, people gather together, and the peace lasts for a long time. In addition, every six months in the city, an exorcism ceremony is held, and evil spirits rarely appear.

But even so, casual cultivators try to go out as little as possible if they can't go out at night.

He did carry an exorcism talisman bought from an old Taoist, but with his and Ge Changyuan's low level of cultivation, even if they had the talisman to protect themselves, they would not be able to escape evil spirits if they encountered them.

In addition, Su Qing was even more worried about the robbery cultivators lurking within the hundred-mile journey between the living area and Lingtian District.

Since the disaster happened, Ge Changyuan only came to find Su Qing. All he thought about along the way was what would happen if Su Qing didn't agree, but he didn't care about the risks along the way.

At this moment, when he saw Su Qing holding the iron-legged horse and looking at the dark night silently, he was shocked and broke into a cold sweat.

"The old man deserves to die, but he didn't expect the risks on this road. He didn't dare to let fellow Taoists follow the old man into danger. Should I wait until dawn before setting off?"

Ge Changyuan slapped his head in annoyance, and after saying that, he squatted by the courtyard wall. Although he was extremely anxious, he did not dare to rush Su Qing at all.

"When installing a prosthetic limb, the faster it is, the better. The longer it takes, the worse the effect of the prosthetic limb will be. We can't wait until dawn!"

Su Qing put the iron-legged horse aside and walked outside Tang Wanqing's yard.

Before he could knock on the door, Tang Wanqing, who was wearing plain robes and seemed to have been listening to what was going on outside, pushed the door open and walked out.

After the two whispered for a while, Su Qing hired Tang Wanqing, a late-stage Qi Refining monk, to accompany him for the price of a high-end love-burning marionette.

Although Ge Changyuan didn't know what price Su Qing paid to hire Tang Wanqing, he also knew that his move was for the consideration of his daughter. He was moved and patted his chest and said that he would bear the employment fee.

Su Qing nodded slightly, ready to give him some spiritual crystals as a token of his will.

The three of them didn't say much. Ge Changyuan led the way on a short horse, Su Qing on an iron horse was in the middle, and finally, Tang Wanqing activated his cassock and flew several feet into the air.

Along the way, perhaps because of the chaos caused by the demonic cultivators today, the robbery cultivators chose to wait and rest for a few days, or perhaps because Tang Wanqing's later stage of Qi refining had enough deterrence.

Anyway, the three of them had a smooth journey and did not encounter any evil evil cultivators. Su Qing, who had his mind controlled by the wood spirit servants who were vigilant along the way, breathed a sigh of relief.

When the night faded and the sun was about to rise, the three people who had been running around for most of the night finally arrived at the boundary of Gejia Village.
